2016 Chevrolet Spark Classic Service and Repair Manual
This factory service and repair manual for the 2016 Chevrolet Spark Classic is built around a naturally aspirated 1.2L DOHC inline-four of 74 cubic inches, mounted in a four-door hatchback sold as Cargo, LS, LT and LTZ. One engine across four trims means the engine mechanical, fuel, ignition and emissions specifications apply to any of them, and the same holds for the brake, steering and suspension work; what changes between trims is equipment, and the wiring diagrams and body sections carry that.
